France Begins Historic Withdrawal of Military Forces from Chad
Dec 11, 2024, 12:34 PM
France has commenced the withdrawal of its military forces from Chad, marking the end of over sixty years of military cooperation between the two nations. The withdrawal was initiated after the Chadian government announced on November 28, 2024, the cancellation of a defense and security cooperation agreement with France. The first phase of this historic withdrawal saw two Mirage fighter jets leaving N'Djamena on December 10, 2024. This move signals a significant shift in France's military presence in its former colonies, with only about 200 soldiers remaining in two countries.
